Anyone who previously believed that they were safer on the good old railroad than in a car or plane will be taught better. This collection of the greatest crimes in railway history shows that the danger of robbery, sabotage, murder and manslaughter lurks everywhere – whether on the rails, in the compartment or at the train station.
Christian Lunzer and Peter Hiess bring together in this book the most spectacular crimes that have happened on rails.
